Looks like Bella had a great time meeting Vivian for the very first time and had a nice walk - a perfect mile loop around the neighborhood! Thank you, Vivian!

The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Mankato

Hiniker Park

A great feature of the Hiniker Park neighborhood is the Kiwanis Recreation Area and Dog Park. This fenced in area offers two separate spaces where both large and small pups can play. There is plenty of grass and trees for shade, and the park even provides clean up bags to help keep the area clean. Neighbors often bring their pups after a long day at work to run off some excess energy. There are benches available so doggie owners can sit and chat while their pups socialize. If you are looking for a nice dog-friendly place to spend the night, Days Inn welcomes two pets for an additional fee.

Sibley Park

The Land of Memories Park is a wonderful place to walk your pooch along the trails that follow the Blue Earth and Minnesota Rivers. You and your pup can stroll along the paths and admire the gardens, or stop for a picnic at one of the pavilions. Pups and their parents will often plan a day at the park on the weekend where the kids can run around at the playground and pups can spend hours sniffing the grass and plants. You can even relax next to the river with your fishing rod while Fido enjoys a cool drink from his water bowl. If you get hungry while out for the day, stop by the Pita Pit, where you can snack on a veggie wrap at one of the pooch-friendly outdoor tables.

Rasmussen Wood

When spending time in the Rasmussen Wood neighborhood, you can enjoy the 150-acre Rassmussen Wood park where you and your pup can hike through the woods to the gazebo while admiring the views. Fido will love sniffing the plants as you travel through the meadows and wetlands, but make sure to bring your own doggie waste bags and water bottles as none oare available here. After an energetic hike, plan to stop by Cold Stone Creamery, where you and Fido can enjoy some ice cream and relax at the outdoor tables.

Erlandson Park

Fido and his family can often be found spending time at the Erlandson Park on sunny afternoons and weekends. This park features athletic fields where the kids can play sports, and walking trails around the beautiful gardens where pups and their parents can get some exercise. Picnic tables are located throughout the area for a perfect spot to relax. After a busy afternoon, give yourself a cooking break and eat dinner at Charley’s Restaurant where you can sit at one of the seven dog-friendly tables and chat with friends and family.

Buscher Park

When searching for a quiet community park to spend quality time with your pup, you will love F.A. Buscher Park on Ledlie Lane. The grassy open space is perfect for your pooch, and the small playground will entertain the kids. You can fill up water bottles at the fountain near the restrooms and relax on a bench when your pooch gets tired of chasing a ball. After walking around the paths and giving Fido his exercise, head over to Noodles & Company where you can enjoy some pasta on the outdoor patio with your pup by your side.
